Xiao Cheng, who was leaning against the door, suddenly saw a familiar figure approaching slowly. He rubbed his eyes carefully as if he couldn't believe it.
"Oh my god, Gu Ni old man actually came out"
At this time Gu Ni also came to Ruyi Zhai's store, took out some Gold Coins apologetically and said.
"Shop Owner Xiao I'm really sorry. Last time I suddenly had a surge of inspiration and couldn't help myself, so I hurriedly left to enter retreat. This is the money from last time. Please take it."
Gu Ni's words made Xiao Cheng's mouth twitch.
If there is a surge of inspiration, just say you have forgotten it. I won't laugh at you.
On the surface, Xiao Cheng smiled and said nonchalantly.
"It doesn't matter, I don't care. By the way, I have gained something from seclusion these days."
As soon as Xiao Cheng asked about the harvest of the past few days, Gu Ni's old face suddenly smiled.
"Of course I have gained a lot. I have been studying Elixir Formula, a third-grade elixir, for the past few days, and I have almost understood it thoroughly. I believe that I will be able to apply for a third-grade alchemist at the Alchemist Association soon."
When he talked about being a third-grade alchemist, Gu Ni's face glowed red, and that kind of happiness radiated from the bottom of his heart, without a trace of deception.
Seeing old man Gu Ni so happy, some of the original complaints about him disappeared. After all, he is still Second-Rank Alchemist and an old man.
"Okay, don't be so polite with me, I just put the new pastries on the shelves today..."
Then Xiao Cheng led Gu Ni to introduce him to new pastries.
Gu Ni also happily followed Xiao Cheng into the store, greeted the two clerks, and also greeted Little Zhen.
Regarding the old man Gu Ni, Yue'er had the deepest impression and had a good impression of him.
"Gu Ni Grandpa, why haven't I seen you here to buy cakes these days?"
"Haha, Miss Yue'er, I have been in retreat for the past few days to understand Elixir Formula, and I didn't gain anything until today."
Hearing what Gu Ni said, Yue'er nodded, and then said with a smile.
"There are new pastries today, that's the one, two hundred Gold Coins a piece, it's a good deal."
There was obviously a hint of temptation in this tone.
It's just that Gu Ni doesn't care about this. It seems that Xiao Cheng over there took a look and smiled.
"Let me see, it's called Sachima, it's two hundred Gold Coins for one piece, so I'll take two pieces."
"Okay, please wait a moment."
Xiao Yi Xian said in a gentle voice.
After a while, the pastries were wrapped and handed to Gu Ni.
Gu Ni After paying the money, I thought about it and decided to try it on the spot.
So he opened the paper package to reveal the true identity of Sachima, then he bit a small piece and started chewing it.
The aroma of Sesame, the sweetness of dried strawberries, the unique fruity flavor, and the sweetness of sugar form a different taste, which makes Gu Ni feel so delicious.
Suddenly, an inexplicable energy surged out of Gu Ni's body and began to enter the solid rhombus crystals in his body.
It was at this time that Gu Ni realized that this was about to break through.
He didn't dare to neglect, and he didn't care that this was Xiao Cheng's shop. He sat down cross-legged and began to absorb the energy and introduce it into the rhombus crystal.
As Gu Ni continues to absorb that energy into the crystal, his strength is steadily improving.
When the energy was finally absorbed, Gu Ni's realm was promoted from Three-star Great Dou Master to Four-star Great Dou Master.
After a while, Gu Ni opened his eyes and showed a smile.
"Breaking through Four-star Great Dou Master"
At this time, Xiao Cheng smiled and congratulated.
"Congratulations, Master Gu Ni, Four-star Great Dou Master"
He also didn't expect the effect of Sachima to be so powerful, and he broke through to a small level after taking one bite.
"Thanks to the store manager's pastries, otherwise I wouldn't have made a breakthrough so quickly."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Cheng quickly waved his hand.
"Your breakthrough is your own opportunity and has nothing to do with me."
Seeing Xiao Cheng like this, Gu Ni smiled incredulously, and then took another bite of Sachima.
But there is no such change this time. Although there has been a certain increase in Dou Qi, it has no effect.
After finishing a piece of Sachima, he felt it was a bit too sweet, so he bought another pound of salty Small Fried Dough Twist before saying goodbye and leaving.
Looking at the back of Gu Ni leaving, Xiao Cheng shook his head.
"This old man is quite interesting"
I looked outside and saw no one I knew coming over, so I sat on a chair nearby.
There wasn't much to do except make pastries.
Moreover, there was nothing important that required him to go out, so he felt comfortable staying in the store.
As soon as he lay down, Xiao Mei came to the store happily.
"Good morning, store manager"
"Oh, Xiao Mei, if you don't practice at the Xiao Clan, why are you coming to my place every day?"
This sentence was obviously meant as a joke.
Hearing what Xiao Cheng said, Xiao Mei pretended to be dissatisfied.
"I'm here to take care of your business. If you don't appreciate it, I have to leave."
"Xiao Mei, don't tease the store manager, he has this kind of character"
At this time, Xiao Yi Xian said with a smile.
I still have a good impression of Xiao Mei and Xiao Yi Xian. The two of them have developed feelings after meeting several times and have become good friends.
Seeing Xiao Yi Xian, Xiao Mei came over.
"Xiao Yi Xian, you are beautiful again. It seems that Shop Owner Xiao's pastries have a beautifying effect."
This sentence caused a blush to appear on Xiao Yi Xian's face, and he quickly defended.
"Don't talk nonsense, the store manager is still here."
"Hehe, it's okay, store manager, you don't mind."
Seeing this girl being so bold and daring to tease his clerk, Xiao Cheng also rolled his eyes at her.
"It's up to you to do whatever you want. By the way, there are new pastries. If you're interested, you can take a look."
"Yeah! There are new pastries, I have to take a look."
Xiao Yi Xian briefly said Sachima for him, and then said.
"Sachima is pretty good, you can try it"
"Then give me a piece."
She thought for a while and thought that two hundred Gold Coins was indeed a bit expensive. Although there was a certain discount for the Xiao Clan, it was not cheap after the discount. It was better to buy one piece to try it. If it tastes good, just buy a few more pieces.
"Good"
I wrapped a piece of Sachima for Xiao Mei and handed it to her.
After paying Xiao Mei, he couldn't wait to take a bite of Sachima. He was immediately conquered by the sweet and sour taste of dried strawberries and the fragrance of Sesame, and was immersed in the sweet pastry.
Suddenly, Xiao Mei suddenly felt that his brain was much clearer, as if his soul had improved.
Xiao Mei was a little confused by this change, so he asked Xiao Cheng.
"Shop Owner Xiao, after I took Sachima just now, I feel that my brain seems to be more sensitive and I am more energetic. What is going on?"
After hearing Xiao Mei's words, Xiao Cheng couldn't help but fell into deep thought, thinking.
"The old man Gu Ni has improved to a small level, and Xiao Mei has improved Spiritual Power. To be precise, it should be mental power. Could it be that the effect of Sachima is to randomly improve a certain personal ability?"
Seeing Xiao Mei staring at him, Xiao Cheng realized that he hadn't answered her yet, so he smiled and said.
"This should be the effect of Sachima. It should be a random improvement of something."
"That's right. Then I'll buy two more pieces and go back to promote it with those Xiao Family Disciples people."
Xiao Mei After thinking about it carefully, I thought maybe buying two more pieces could improve some other abilities.
"Then I have to thank you for helping me promote it, haha"
Although this sentence was a word of thanks, there was some reluctance in the tone.
But Xiao Mei didn't hear it, said something to Xiao Cheng and left.
After watching Xiao Mei leave, Xiao Cheng looked at Sachima in the glass counter, seemingly thoughtful.
"It seems that the effect of Sachima is random. It randomly improves the realm, improves mental power, improves Spiritual Power, and the understanding of Dou Technique, maybe even the understanding of heaven-defying can be improved."
Thinking of this, Xiao Cheng rubbed his chin and thought for a while. He then thought about whether he could change his own bones with levels.
Although this idea is a bit unrealistic, it does have a chance of happening with pastries like Sachima.
"We can only take one step at a time and see what happens. This Sachima is pretty awesome."
